The audience was split roughly 50:50 between       Zappa fans and the contemporary music crowd, but nonetheless turned out       to be a great concert. The EM clearly enjoyed the audience response once       we'd livened up the contemporary gang and they'd realised they didn't       have to just clap politely but that more robust applause was also       appreciated.              I would add 'Roxy By Proxy' too, except that's old Zappa, not new. It is,       however, my favourite FZ lineup at its peak.                     --       Martin | martin at       Gregorie | gregorie dot org              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
